What is the best way to visit Israel? By plane, by bus, or maybe by car? Derech Hateva believes the best way to see this small but fascinating country is by foot.

Registration is now open for Derech Hateva’s annual Israel Trail Teen Adventure (ITTA), a month-long outdoor program for Jewish teens from North America and Israel.

Covering parts of the Israel National Trail by foot (as well as mountain biking and rock climbing thrown in), combining environmental education, leadership and Torah-learning along the way.

“Derech Hateva teaches our kids how to be independent, strong mensches who are caring members of a community,” says Elena, an alumni parent.

This summer’s adventure dates are June 28th to July 27th for girls, and June 29th to July 27th for boys (ages 14 to 19).

For more information or to apply visit www.derechhateva.org or contact [email protected] (Israel) 02-624-8743, (USA) 212-537-6280.

Born into a family of auto mechanics and engineers in east London’s urban sprawl, Michael bucked the trend and chose a bicycle instead of a car. A relative newcomer to Jerusalem, he works as a freelance journalist writing for the Jerusalem Post and other publications. Before moving to Israel, he worked for an environmental NGO in England where he developed a healthy obsession with organic vegetables and an aversion to pesticides and GMOs. Michael’s surname is pure coincidence. Michael can be reached at michael (at) greenprophet (dot) com.
